I thought I would show you my inspiration for my flower pot card Instead of punched or die cut flowers, I stamped and fussy cut mine. So it did take a little longer. I didn't have a large daisy stamp, so I used the sunflower stamp and cut it down. I took out two of the petals and cut groups of petals (three or four to a group). I thought I would write a note on the pocket insert, since I have the happy birthday tag on the outside. Fun challenge, thanks for taking a peek!

Your fussy cutting always amazes me! It takes a long time to cut all that out and what an incredible copy you made of your inspirations! This is fabulous!

Kathleen, I'm so glad this got mentioned in the favorites, I'd have missed it otherwise!
What a beautiful pot of flowers! Wonderful fussy cutting, making a sunflower into a daisy, wonderful colors! I'd say this is a beautiful way to say Happy Birthday to someone!
